===========================================================================
Models 400 and 410
This section provides a description of the system unit module components
for Models 400 and 410. These components are accessed from the bottom of
the computer:
o Hard drive -- The hard drive is easily replaced or upgraded from the
bottom of the computer. Remove two screws from the hard drive
compartment cover to access the hard drive. The hard drive mounts to the
system chassis with a hard drive bracket and connects directly to the
system board with no intervening cables. The hard drive bracket attaches
to the hard drive with four screws.
o Memory expansion -- System memory can be upgraded with optional memory
expansion boards. An expansion board is added or replaced from the
bottom of the computer through the memory compartment cover. The memory
expansion board connects directly to the system board with two
connectors.
o Battery pack -- The Nickel Metal Hydride battery pack is accessed
through the battery compartment.
To access the remaining system unit components, open the computer and
remove the keyboard assembly. These components include the following:
o Integrated trackball assembly -- The mechanical trackball is centrally
located at the bottom of the keyboard assembly. The assembly consists of
the trackball, retaining ring, and connector. The trackball assembly
connects directly to the system board and is secured by one screw. It
cannot be replaced with the optical trackball used in the Models 420 and
430. The mechanical trackball and optical trackball are not
interchangeable.
o System board -- The system board is mounted directly to the system
chassis. All removable components connected to the system board, except
for the PC Card rails, must be removed prior to removing the system
board. The system board is unique and cannot be replaced by the one
used in the Models 420 and 430.
o Processor upgrade -- Systems that come with the DX2/40 MHz processor can
be upgraded to the DX2/50 MHz processor. Place the upgrade processor into
the two connectors on the system board (Refer to "Removal and
Replacement Procedures, Section 3.11). Once installed, the processor
overrides control of the system board processor. The system board
processor is not removable.
o Real-Time Clock Battery -- This battery is located directly behind the
Trackball.
o PC Card rails -- The PC Card rails are replaceable and are secured by
two screws from the bottom of the system board and a clip on top of the
rails. The rails are not interchangeable with those used in Models 420
and 430. The clip is common between all models. The header attaches
directly to the system board and cannot be removed. The top and bottom
PC Card ejection levers are replaceable, but are not interchangeable
with those used in the Models 420 and 430.
o Diskette drive -- The diskette drive attaches to the system board by a
bracket and three screws. It is connected by a diskette drive cable and
LIF connector. The bracket attaches to the drive with four screws. The
drive is protected by an insulator between the system board and the
drive.

system chassis with a hard drive bracket and connects directly to the
system board with no intervening cables. The hard drive bracket attaches
to the hard drive with four screws.
o Memory expansion -- System memory can be upgraded with optional memory
expansion boards. An expansion board is added or replaced from the
bottom of the computer through the memory compartment cover. The memory
expansion board connects directly to the system board with two connectors.
o Battery pack -- The Nickel Metal Hydride battery pack is accessed
through the battery compartment.
To access the remaining system unit components, open the computer and

DX4/75 MHz or a DX4/100 MHz processor on the system board. There are no
upgrade provisions for these models.
o Real-Time Clock Battery -- This battery is located in the left rear area
of the system board.
o PC Card rails -- The PC Card rails are replaceable and are secured by
two screws from the bottom of the system board and a clip on top of the
rails. The rails are not interchangeable with those used in Models 420
and 430. The clip is common between all models. The header attaches
directly to the system board and cannot be removed. The top and bottom
PC Card ejection levers are replaceable, but are not interchangeable
with those used in the Models 400 and 410.
o Diskette drive -- The diskette drive attaches to the system board by a
bracket and three screws. It is connected by a diskette drive cable and
LIF connector. The bracket attaches to the drive with four screws. The
drive is protected by an insulator between the system board and the
drive.
Chapter 1.4 Display Assembly Overview
Display Assembly Description
This section provides a description of the display assembly and
components.
All display assemblies (Figure 1-5 and Figure 1-6) include the following
replaceable parts:
o Bezel
o Enclosure latches
o Inverter board
o Liquid crystal display (LCD) panel
o Shield
o Enclosure
o Display cable and display ground cable
To replace the display assembly, the assembly must be removed from the
system unit module. This is done by removing the keyboard assembly,
disconnecting the display cable and display ground cable from the system
unit module, removing the tilt feet and handle brackets, removing the rear
clutch screws, and lifting off the display assembly.
To service display components, do not remove the display assembly from the
system unit module (unless the display enclosure or clutch replacement is
required). Access display components (inverter board or latches) by
removing the bezel secured with four screws on the front of the display.
The display cable is a prefolded, flex cable that connects to the display
inverter board with a low insertion force (LIF) connector. The other end
of the display cable is exposed at the bottom of the display enclosure and
connects to the system board with a zero insertion force (ZIF) slide
connector.
The display ground cable connects to the display shield on one end, and
the other end clips to a LIF-type spring clip located above the serial
port between the system board and system chassis.
The display inverter board is aligned to the right of the display
enclosure with pins. One end connects to the display cable; the other end
connects to the backlight cable of the LCD panel.
Chapter 1.5 Docking Base
The docking base includes the following replaceable parts:
o Battery door
o Feet
o Handle
Chapter 1.6 Monitor Support Cover
The monitor support cover is used with the docking base. The foot on the
monitor support cover is the only replaceable part.
